I know im not the first to suggest this, but it would be really cool to have higher res computers
It would help me alot in making games and programs. I think I remember dan saying he wouldnt implement this but it could be just my imagination. If you have any information on this subject, please post it below

Attach a monitor, add more blocks according to taste. That's how I got the needed resolution for my card games.

Granted, monitors generally only accept mouse input, though MoarPeripherals offers a "keyboard" item that solves that little problem.

Prior to CC 1.6 you can alter terminal display sizes within the CC config, though for whatever reason Dan decided to remove that feature with that build.

There's also monitor.setTextScale(), for even better resolutions.
